WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use and installa-
tion of child restraints could result in
serious injury or death of a child or
other passengers in a sudden stop or
collision:
.
Attach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown in the illustration.
. Inspect the lower anchors by insert-
ing your fingers into the lower
anchor area. Feel to make sure
there are no obstructions over the
anchors such as seat belt webbing
or seat cushion material. The child
restraint will not be secured prop-
erly if the lower anchors are ob-
structed.
Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re- straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed
using the damaged anchorage, and a
child could be seriously injured or killed
in a collision.

side to side while holding the child restraint
near the LATCH attachment path. The child
restraint should not move more than 1 inch
(25 mm) , from side to side. Try to tug it
forward and check to see if the LATCH
attachment holds the restraint in place. If the
restraint is not secure, tighten the LATCH
attachment as necessary, or put the restraint
in another seat and test it again. You may
need to try a different child restraint or try
installing �by using the vehicle seat �belt (if
applica�ble) . Not all child restraints fit in all
types of vehicles.

WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must be
used when installing a child restraint.
Failure to use the ALR mode will result
in the child restraint not being properly
secured. The restraint could tip over or
be loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision. Also, it can change the operation of the front

WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed
using the damaged anchorage, and a
child could be seriously injured or killedin a collision.
The child restraint top tether strap must \be used
when installin\f the child restraint with the
LATCH lower anchor attachments.
First, secure the child restraint with the LATCH
lower anchors (rear out\board seat positions
only) .
1. Flip up the anchor cover from the anchor point which is located directly \behind the
child restraint.
2. Position the top tether strap over the top of the seat\back.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point on the rear parcel shelf.
4. Refer to the appropriate child restraint installation procedure steps earlier in this
section \before ti\fhtenin\f the tether strap.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap, consult a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer for details.
